** How many obols to a mina? **

1 mina - 600 obols

ANCIENT HELLENIC WORLD

1 talent (weight unit; 26,196 g) = 60 minai = 6,000 silver drachms = 36,000 silver obols

In the seventh century B.C. weighed silver began to be used in Greece as a medium of exchange; this silver was measured on the basis of the mina and its sexagesimal submultiple, the shekel, according to the Babylonian-Assyrian method of reckoning. In the Peloponnese, weighed silver currency came into competition with the established currency of iron obols. Obols were a form of utensil-money consisting of the spits used for broiling meat on the open fire: they were an object of daily use down to classical times, not only in Greece, but also in Italic, Etruscan, and Celtic territory. A relation of value was established between the iron obol and weighed silver: six iron obols, that is a drachma, were considered equal to a shekel of silver. This relation was called mevtra, which means ratio and is synonymous with ajriqmov". By the establishment of this relation, the concept of a continuum measured by weight was extended from the silver currency to iron, so that an iron obol came to be considered equal in value to a piece of iron in any shape, provided the weight was identical.

Answer 3

6 obols = 1 drachma
100 drachmae = 1 mina

so 600 obols = 1 mina
